- Happy birthday this week to Madge on 3.9 and Gregg on 3.13! - Pres. Randy shared the news that Bob Yahr (Dr. Robert) passed last week and announced that our Club will make a $100 donation in his honor, and also in honor of Hal Robb and Bob Kimball. The family is being assisted by Schneider Funeral Home. - Our SOM today was Kayley Ellis. You can watch her presentation in the meeting Zoom link. - SAVE THE DATE: District 6250 Conference will be held April 18-24. District Conferences are an excellent way to learn more about Rotary and get an infusion of passion for all that we accomplish. If you haven't attended before, I highly recommend making time for this virtual conference. - Derek: if you are responsible for sending photos or presentations for an upcoming meeting, send to him at: noonrotaryscholarship@gmail.com until further notice. He is asking for more Rotarians to assist with our meeting technology. Please reach out to him and let him know how you can help. - Pres. Randy read the list of donation items requested by Milton Food Pantry and an email was sent to all members. - This month we are partnering with Janesville Community Center. Cassie sent an email with this volunteer request from Fr.Earl: "We will be revitalizing a community garden here at our location on Lincoln St. most likely Saturday March 27th starting at 10 am. It hasn't been maintained for a couple of years and needs a good weeding and the raised beds rebuilt. Or do you need it to be a weekday event? We will name it the 'Garden of Eatin' and it will be used to teach families to be more self-reliant by growing some of their produce and sharing produce with neighbors." Reply back to Cassie if you would like to get your hands dirty and help out. - If you're interested in helping design a new Janesville Noon friendship Banner, please let me know. When some designs have been accumulated, we will have members vote on our future Banner. The designer will have the honor of knowing the Banners will be given to people and Clubs around the Country and the world for a long time to come. It's been suggested that we not get too 'project' specific so our Banner doesn't get obsolete. What does Janesville Noon Rotary evoke in you, and can you put it into a design? - If you're interested in taking a District Grant Management Seminar, the next is on 3.17 at 5:30 PM. - Pres. Randy conducted a vote on approving the RI Constitution so we can add it into our documents section of the website. |
